Gaza: Defending Health Advocacy

Conferences & public forums
Naarm/Melbourne

When

6:30pm Monday 22 September

Where

Drill Hall
26 Therry St
Melbourne VIC 3000
Australia

Why

Health is a human right, and health professionals have a duty to defend it. But advocates for the health of people in Gaza are censured, while our key institutions - even in the face of genocide - stay silent, or worse.

Hear from medical professionals, advocates, and ethicists on defending health advocacy for Gaza - and join with others to take action!
